Tony Abbott begged crossbench MPs to make him prime minister, joking that ''the only thing I wouldn't do is sell my arse - but I'd have to give serious thought to it''.

Independent Tony Windsor recalls feeling alarm and pity when Mr Abbott revealed the depth of his desire to become prime minister.

Independent MPs have revealed startling new details of their reservations about the Opposition Leader - including that joking plea.MP Rob Oakeshott also recalls Mr Abbott begging for the job - ''yes he did'' - but he would not comment publicly about the gag, that he would consider prostitution as a last resort, even if it was a joke.

Is this the sort of behaviour we should expect from a future Prime Minister or the Leader of the Coalition, was it a joke or is he so desperate he would offer anything.

Oh Tony, Tony, Tony your mouth does get you into trouble, what on earth are you likely to say when meeting other world leaders if you wanted something desperately.

The truth is the liberal party has gone back to their roots of "BORN TO RULE"

He will do anything to bring the government down, he has even changed the liberal party name to the "NO LIBERAL PARTY"
